More than ** 50 million women ** have enjoyed Girl Scouting in their youth. 82% of high-achieving alumnae believe that Girl Scouting influenced their success. 64% of women listed in Who’s Who in America are former Girl Scouts. 68% of women in our current Congress were Girl Scouts. If you asked today’s women leaders where they got their drive, spirit, and leadership skills, more than 50% will talk about their powerful experiences in Girl Scouts. That’s where these successful women learned to stand strong, with courage and confidence.
 * Did You Know? **

In the Florida Panhandle, Girl Scouting is inclusive and relevant for all girls, providing leadership experiences, tangible skills and positive values for members of more than 580 Troops, nearly 80 Independent (Juliette) Girl Scouts, and 127 girls in underserved communities. Scholarships and sponsorships are available to make Girl Scouting accessible to every girl. In Girl Scouting, leadership is the result of girls discovering their world, connecting with others, and taking action to make the world a better place.
